What would be the best way to allocate:

1) a VM page whose physical address falls within a certain boundary, and
2) a VM object whose pages are contiguous in physical address space?

Background:
The !@*%^*!&#^%*&!#^$!@ Intel 810/815 graphics controller requires its
instruction and hardware cursor buffers to reside within first 32MB and
512MB of *physical* memory space respectively.  :(  :(  ;(  The XFree86
driver assumes the Linux memory model (virtual addr == physical addr),
so it runs on Linux, but not always on FreeBSD.

Cheers,
Eugene
